Hydrogen configs

[ppinchuk]

Added configuration files used to generate hydrogen project results.

@WilliamsTravis @ppinchuk are there any references that would be useful to document / describe these models in a README? I saw an NREL report in the comments, does that cover all of the cost/electrolyzer models or just that one input set?

For the 55.5 kWh/kg electrolyzer efficiency rate:

Peterson, D., Vickers, J. and DeSantis, D., 2020. Hydrogen production cost from PEM electrolysis—2019. DOE Hydrogen Fuel Cells Program Record, 19009.

https://www.hydrogen.energy.gov/pdfs/19009_h2_production_cost_pem_electrolysis_2019.pdf (table 2)

For water costs we used:

Water and Wastewater Annual Price Escalation Rates for Selected Cities across the United States. 2017. United States Dept. of Energy, Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy Office. doi:10.2172/1413878.

https://www.energy.gov/sites/default/files/2017/10/f38/water_wastewater_escalation_rate_study.pdf

For electrolyzer costs:

Ruth, M.F., Jadun, P., Gilroy, N., Connelly, E., Boardman, R., Simon, A.J., Elgowainy, A. and Zuboy, J., 2020. The Technical and Economic Potential of the H2@ Scale Hydrogen Concept within the United States (No. NREL/TP-6A20-77610). National Renewable Energy Lab.(NREL), Golden, CO (United States).

For pipeline costs, we have two citations, but there's a broken link for the second. I just asked Owen about it. Here's the first:

Council, H., 2021. Hydrogen Insights–A perspective on hydrogen investment, market development and cost competitiveness. Hydrogen Council.

Can you make a readme? :)

[WilliamsTravis]

Okay, added one. Check to see if you like that format
